The professional wrestling world has recently been speculating about the whereabouts of Jeff Hardy, considering his absence from recent All Elite Wrestling (AEW) matches due to a nasal injury sustained in a bout against Sammy Guevara on one episode of AEW Rampage. Plans for his comeback have been shrouded in uncertainty for some time. However, it appears we now may have solid information about his return.
Fightful Select, a reliable source for wrestling news, reports that Hardy will gain free agent status beginning Friday, June 14, 2024.
Known as The Charismatic Enigma, Hardy’s contract could have been extended to make up for the time lost to injury and suspension, effectively pushing his tenure into 2025. This is a common practice, but if the looming news of him turning into a free agent is accurate, it suggests that Tony Khan and AEW have chosen not to pursue this route.
His brother, Matt Hardy, announced in May that Jeff was officially cleared to wrestle again, but Jeff has yet to make his return to the ring. Matt, on the other hand, has made his comeback at TNA Wrestling, appearing once again on April 20th at Rebellion. This raises the question: will Jeff follow his brother’s path and reunite The Hardy Boyz? Or will he heed Eric Bischoff’s advice and steer clear of professional wrestling industry for good?
